Taken from Head For Points:
When I was over in Stockholm two weeks ago, I chose to stay at the Radisson Blu SkyCity inside the airport terminal. The main group I was travelling with were at the cheaper Radisson Blu Arlandia hotel, a 6-7 minute shuttle bus ride away, but with my inbound British Airways flight not due to arrive until midnight I wasn’t keen.
My first decision was ‘cash or points?’. It was an easy one. Club Carlson is currently running a triple points promotion. Even if you drop the value of Carlson points to £3.50 per 1,000 post devaluation on June 1st, I was still getting 35% of my spend back in points – in the end, I banked 23,000 points for the two nights.
44,000 points per night also looked poor value compared to the cash price of around £120. I used the AA / AAA route I wrote about in this article to get a discount on the standard price. I was never asked to show my Automobile Association card although I did bring it.
Let me try to explain how Radisson Blu SkyCity works.
